Since Donald Trump's controversial takeover of the Kennedy Center, the organization has seen over 20 shows canceled or postponed, many attributed to political dissent from artists. Roma Daravi, the center's new VP of Public Relations, emphasized that cancellations stemmed from sales or artist availability issues. However, underlying political motivations are evident, with some artists resigning and productions halting due to themes conflicting with Trump's conservative agenda. Despite these challenges, the center still plans to host performances, like one from the J6 Prison Choir.
In the spirit of transparency due to the litany of misinformation being spread in the press, it is important to give the public a complete account of program cancellations.
The Kennedy Center does still have events coming up, including a reported performance by the J6 Prison Choir, comprised of men previously imprisoned.
